Seems that's not the case, but the movie might have been significantly altered from the book:

Quote :
Author Michael Ende was initially happy about his book being turned into a film. Ende worked with Wolfgang Petersen as a script advisor and was paid only $50,000 for the rights to his book. Ende claimed that Petersen later rewrote the script without consulting him, and that this adaptation deviated so far from his book that he requested that production either be halted or the film's title be changed. When the producers did neither, he sued them and subsequently lost the case.[3] Ende called the film a "gigantic melodrama of kitsch, commerce, plush, and plastic" (German: Ein gigantisches Melodram aus Kitsch, Kommerz, Plüsch und Plastik").[5]

Not a bad deal at all, but wish these versions had kept the two-ink print from the original runs. Just added an extra layer of wonder to the reading experience as the stories within the book start to become one.

Book came out first, and technically the first movie is the first half of the book. The second movie is kinda sorta the other half, but yeah... they obviously tweaked it and 'reformatted to fit the screen' Stick Out Tongue

I liked the movie as a kid and read the book after. Book is a lot better . So much was left out of the movie, book adds a lot of clarification.

On my crappy VHS copy and CRT TV speaker, it always sounded like he was yelling Atreyu... which made no real sense to me. It took until I watched it on DVD that I understood that line. I laughed out loud.
